igrushka: (to ask where you go at night)

Helios remembered the dread and fear he had when he'd started taking tutoring from Selene. How the butterflies wrought his stomach with anxiety at the threat of being axed from the team if he didn't reach achieve a certain point average on his next test. But with Selene's saintly patience, and his kind smiles, Helios had achieved beyond the minimum needed to keep his spot. He didn't really need the tutoring anymore but he kept coming to the sessions because he had enjoyed their time together. Very much so. To the point where those butterflies returned with a new found purpose. Now it was just routine- studying together and hanging out together.

Quidditch practice was one of those routines and while most days Helios had his head in the game- focused on preparing for the next big match against the other houses, today he'd been distracted. Somewhere up there on the broomstick, he had his head in the clouds. And while he wasn't distracted enough for anyone to notice, he came bloody close to a bludger smashing him in the shoulder. To the untrained eye, however, it looked like he'd been looking for an opportunity to grab the quaffle and almost crashed into the bludger.

But Selene always thought he did good with quidditch and it didn't matter how sweaty or bloody he was after practice, he was always there at the pitch waiting for him.

"Maybe I should tutor you on quidditch," he teased lightly as he placed his arm around Selene. "Because I was distracted on the field today," he pulled the Ravenclaw closer and whispered; "Couldn't stop thinking about my number one fan."

With a sly smile of his own, he leaned in and quickly kissed the other on the cheek.
